The Capitals weren't exactly ready to play when the puck dropped in Tampa, and though Charlie Lindgren kept the team in it while they found their game, it was too little, too late in a 3-1 loss. Takeaways, plus more on Matt Roy & what else to know: https://t.co/aexvk66513

I also got to catch up with Cal Petersen today. In high spirits here at Caps camp as he navigates a PTO and tries to make the most out of his opportunity. One of three southpaws on the Caps camp roster, and skates with Charlie Lindgren in the summers.

I think Thompson and Lindgren make up the tandem in D.C. Caps appreciate what Lindgren’s done as a backup and he was in a rough spot last year with what he was asked to do. Think they try to slide Stevenson through waivers. We’ll see how it plays out.
